[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-3411) Streams: rename job.id to application.id

Michael Noll created KAFKA-3411:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Streams: rename job.id to application.id
                 Key: KAFKA-3411
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3411
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: kafka streams
    Affects Versions: 0.10.0.0
            Reporter: Michael Noll
            Priority: Minor


Background: We stopped using the terminology of a "job" in the context of Kafka Streams.  For example, the upcoming Streams docs do not refer to a "job" anymore; otherwise it's very confusing to readers that are familiar with "jobs" in Hadoop, Spark, Storm, etc. because there's no equivalent concept of a "job" in Streams.

We should update the Streams code (see "cd streams/ ; git grep job" for a starting point) to reflect this accordingly.  Notably, the configuration option "job.id" should be changed to "application.id".
